and lets say the company is as we speak generating Q2 4X revenues of Q1, I would be applying those earnings to the Buy Back while the shares are so cheap. Why announce it while he can get shares so darn cheap? IMHO the stock is worthy of a much higher shareprice based on what we know today. So what the heck, if the PPS stays cheap buy em. OK by me, take em out of circulation and thats when the fireworks hit..
